The screen will fit a Heerey no problem - assuming no ones messed with the aperture! Quote: I also need to figure out how to get it over to Sweden or is it possible to get it shipped straight from the supplier?

Re: Heated windscreens - new batch
OK I'm interested. If you could give me a price for shipping to Sweden that would be great. Otherwise when the time comes I can use an address in the UK and pick it up next time I'm over with a car.

The screens were moulded off my Heerey, a 1.3, so they should fit that! I've never seen a Heerey with the earlier Cox type roof line, but yes of course if that was to be the case then there'd be a problem.

Re: Heated windscreens - new batch
We should hang on until they actually arrive! There's never been a problem so far but I'm very superstitious ... counting chickens before they're hatched etc... As soon as they clear customs we can arrange payment/delivery etc.

Re: Heated windscreens - new batch
I won't know until they actually arrive - the number that turn up is a bit variable. No idea why , it's just the way it is. If we get all the ones I've ordered there will be a spare.

Re: Heated windscreens - new batch
Well 8 screens have turned up, so all those those with confirmed orders will get one. Unfortunately there are no spare ones at present.
